Biomedical Engineering Researcher’s Novel Device Could Change Breast Cancer Detection and Treatment
Guoqiang Yu, an associate professor in the Center for Biomedical Engineering, has devoted years of research to developing novel diffuse optical devices that can noninvasively measure the blood flow, oxygenation and metabolic rate of a tumor. By placing a foam pad containing several optic fibers onto a patient’s neck to establish contact, doctors can learn [...]
